So I've been with my partner now fiance for nearly 2 years, im 33, hes 45 we have a son that's now 6 months old. Since being pregnant and having our son I jus feel its constant arguments and bickering, he speaks to me so disrespectfully, calls me a bitch, talks over me so I can't finish a sentence. He shouts in front of the kids at me, sometimes waking up the baby from his nap and I also have a 12 Yr old daughter from a previous relationship that adores him but has to Hear him shouting at me. I'm not saying he doesn't have his good points coz he does but the arguing has got to a point where its every day more or less and its bringing me to a new low! When I've tried to talk and communicate with him he jus rolls his eyes and mumbles shit or says whatever. We've split up once before over how he talks to me and the constant lack of affection and care. I literally have to ask him for a cuddle or a kiss. And when we do row and I get so upset, n cry he doesn't bat an eyelid. But it's making me so low within myself and damaging my self esteem, and making me anxious all the time..he works nights so I do all day and all night with the baby, then when he does have days off he ain't interested in spending time with me or showing me any love whatsoever.
I dunno what to do? Coz I love him but I know it's making me so unhappy but same time I know I've now jus had his son and jus feel slightly trapped in the situation. Use to be such a strong confident woman, and now I jus feel trodden down, weak and shit in myself. Jus scared to make the wrong decision, cos I know he wants to come home but I don't wanna end up back in same situation again coz he always promises he'll be better and always goes back to this.
Jus want some advice plz.

I am vulnerable and I am in love with him, but he isn't the same man I fell in love with. And I jus wanna point out that he is a great dad and yh arguing and shouting around the kids is not acceptable and that's why now I'm sticking to my guns even more because I don't want my daughter or son thinking that this is acceptable behaviour.
I'm tryna be brave now and jus keep to it, jus hard when so many feelings are involved and he's there telling me he's sorry n loves me. Jus wish he'd change but I know he won't.
See I'd say it isn't abuse but then I suppose abuse comes in alot of forms. I jus feel very lost right now.

He is NOT a great dad!

He's abusive and he doesn't care what they witness.

HE IS NOT A GREAT DAD!

Of course it doesn't! My children always and will always come 1st. And that's why I've threw him out last week because I will not put up with the rows and shouting in front of the kids.

But you say he's a great dad - no he's not

You say he and your DD love each other - he doesn't going by the way he's behaving.

PLEASE stay strong and don't let him back

He isn't worth it and the damage you will do to your children absolutely isn't worth it
